Quality in Higher Education Dimensions Vision

(Referring to Tabuk University)

Abstract

As stated in its objective and vision, Tabuk University strives to be the best in all areas of education and research, as well as the different activities it provides, for the benefit of the community. The goal is to create and develop a distinguished person who can fulfil his country's dreams of a better life, which are rooted in its history and customs. Making these traditions and heritages strong in the face of contemporary problems and gaining the information necessary to propel growth, success, and prosperity are the goals.

Over the past few decades, civilizations have undergone significant transformations that have imposed accumulated concepts and values. The emphasis on quality was the most crucial of these. The phenomena of globalization, privatization, and market mechanisms determine this. In order to meet the needs and demands of societies, higher education institutions had to adapt positively to these changes, embrace the Total Quality Management (TQM) concept, and perform to internationally accepted standards. Therefore, the capacity of those institutions in terms of the abilities, energies, and qualifications of skills owned by individuals, rather than the society's natural resources and cultural heritage, is what allows any society to manage its institutions effectively and efficiently.
